This is a compilation of the best table tennis shots made in 2024. And what a riveting video it is too, because these players pulled out all the stops. I especially liked the fake swings and behind-the-back shots. Me? I stopped playing ping pong when I discovered beer pong. I

In actual plastic food news, this is a stop motion video of Youtuber Andrew of Hypno Motion preparing a LEGO double cheeseburger (that would be $18 at Five Guys), complete with bacon, lettuce, tomato, jalapeño and onion on a sesame seed bun. Yum! I mean except that it’s plastic. Plastic

This is a video of Youtuber NileBlue making American cheese (think Kraft Singles) to prove that it’s not just plastic like conspiracy theorists would apparently have you believe. I did not know conspiracy theorists would have me believe that. THE GOVERNMENT IS IN MY SKULL. Did you hear something? Basically,

Always one to push personal transportation to the limit, this is a video of engineer James Bruton (seen previously constructing a personal AT-AT walker) building an omni-directional bike that sits on two giant balls.

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this horror movie and it gave me nightmares. This is a clip of artist and metalworker Ulysses (Oolie) Secrest sitting in the shower wearing a mask he made and setting it on fire. He says the metal frame of the mask took about 10 hours

Because roasting marshmallows is a science best left to overly complicated machines, this is a video of Steve Price demonstrating his camping themed Rube Goldberg machine, which culminates in the roasting of a marshmallow atop a heat gun. I appreciate Steve’s effort to carry the camping theme throughout the entire

This is a video from the recent X-Games on Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen, Colorado of Italian skier Miro Tabanelli and Japanese snowboarder Hiroto Ogiwara landing the first 2340° spins. Just like the title says, that’s 6.5 rotations, or TRUE STORY: 5.5 more rotations than I completed before breaking my arm.

After losing his left eye to cancer, machinist Brian Stanley decided to make lemonade and created a titanium prosthetic with an embedded adjustable color LED flashlight (controlled by waving an RFID ring in front of it) so he can illuminate the darkness wherever he goes (or look like a Terminator).
